Rottenberger, Stefanie; Kleiss, Betina; Kühn, Uwe; Wolf, Annette; Piedade, Maria Teresa Fernandez; Junk, Wolfgang Johannes; Kesselmeier, JürgenThe effect of root inundation on the leaf emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde and acetic acid in relation to assimilation and transpiration was investigated with 2ĝ€"3 years old tree seedlings of four Amazonian floodplain species by applying dynamic cuvette systems under greenhouse conditions. Emissions were monitored over a period of several days of inundation using a combination of Proton Transfer Reaction Mas...
Root anoxia effects on physiology and emissions of volatile organic compounds (...
Bracho-Nuñez, Araceli; Knothe, Nina Maria; Costa, Wallace R.; Liberato, Maria Astrid Rocha; Kleiss, Betina; Rottenberger, StefanieVolatile organic compound (VOC) emissions are affected by a variety of biotic and abiotic factors such as light intensity, temperature, CO2 and drought. Another stress factor, usually overlooked but very important for the Amazon region, is flooding. We studied the exchange of VOCs in relation to CO2 exchange and transpiration of 8 common tree species from the Amazonian floodplain forest grown up from seeds usin...
